Accept All and sales transactions

Apr 01, 2006 4 Replies

Is there some accounting or other reason why, in dealing with downloaded investment transactions, "Accept All" will only accept buy transactions but not new sale transactions? If one has a lot of sales, this becomes a time consuming deal to manually accept each one, wait for Q to do its calculations and then repeat for each sale.



If not, is there a chance Intuit is working on a way to make Accept All really accept all?

Quicken does not know what shares you want to sell; when you process the sell transactions individually, you get the opportunity to choose which shares to sell.

I'm gussing not.

That makes sense except there could be an option to tell Quicken "first in, first out" which should solve that simple question for Quicken. Right now, when I individually accept the sale transactions, 90% of the time it does not even ask me which lot to sell because the choice is obvious. Sounds like a simple programming thing to achieve.

I wish I could contact Intuit directly about it.
